Equipment
An SLR camera, or iPhone is recommended, but point and shooters are welcome. Bring: any lens you own but a good street lens is 35-85mm. I recommend traveling light and forcing your self to shoot with one or two lens. Bring lots of memory cards, and batteries. I will be shooting with my iPhone, DSLR and Lensbaby and its many different lens choices for creative images.
Clothing
The weather is unpredictable, so be prepared for wet and cool/cold conditions. Appropriate footwear for walking is highly recommended. While temps in our region are moderate, April can be cold.
